Lyrics

Everything fell to pieces when my eyes met yours
In that hospital gown
And the dreams we once were dreaming, that we held so close
Felt impossible now

And all the plans we held for the future
And all the memories up from the past
The world that I once knew was in a cardboard box
In the lobby lost and found

Hallelujah, nevertheless
Was the song that pain couldn't destroy
Hallelujah, nevertheless
You're my joy invincible
Joy invincible, joy
Joy invincible, joy invincible, joy
Joy invincible, joy invincible

Tears were in my eyes when the phone rings
If only life didn't need us to be this brave
But we don't live in the world of if only's
Stretched tight in between our birth and our graves

Hallelujah, nevertheless
Was the song that pain couldn't destroy
Hallelujah, nevertheless
You're my joy invincible
Joy invincible, joy

Open your eyes
Look to the skies
We are the children of the promise

Hold to what's real
Everything heals
We are the children of the promise

Open your heart
Look for the sparks
We are the children of the promise

Love is your place
Feel the light on your face
We are the children of the promise

Tears were in my eyes when the phone rings
Maybe it's Your joy that's giving me strength

Hallelujah, nevertheless
Was a song that pain couldn't destroy
Hallelujah, nevertheless
You're my joy invincible
Joy invincible, joy
Joy invincible, joy invincible, joy
Joy invincible, joy invincible, joy
You're my joy invincible, joy invincible, joy
